Hi Tim,

Unfortunately I need to set the ambient, diffuse, specular, and

level I have been able to find that allows me to apply materials in OSG
is at the Geometry class, through a StateSet.  Is this the case or am I
overlooking something?

The OSG is not set up to change material properties at this level of
granularity, and it'd be a colossal performance hit doing such find
grained state changes.  You really really don't want to be trying
this, the OSG doesn't support, and nor should it.

A better route would be to use a vertex shader to set up the lighting
model per vertex by read multiple vertex attributes for each of the
ambient, diffuse, specular and shininess.
